18 Experiments for an upgraded liquid oil production via fast co-pyrolysis of bamboo
19 residual and waste tire over two catalytic beds of CaO and HZSM-5 were conducted,
20 and the effect of CaO to HZSM-5 mass ratio on pyrolytic products distribution was
21 investigated and analyzed. Furthermore, a novel modification method for enhancing
22 the catalytic performance of HZSM-5 by an integrated alkali treatment and
23 hydrothermal process was carried out, and the influence of co-modified HZSM-5 on
24 products distribution was also studied. Experimental results revealed that the catalytic
25 fast co-pyrolysis of bamboo residual and waste tire increased the relative contents of
26 aromatics and olefins. Simultaneously, a use of dual catalytic stage of CaO and
27 HZSM-5 further facilitated the relative contents of aromatics and olefins significantly,
28 and inhibited the formation of undesirables like acids. A maximum yield of

29 hydrocarbons could be reached at HZSM-5 to CaO mass ratio of 3:2. Furthermore, the
30 co-modified HZSM-5 promoted the relative contents of aromatics and olefins
31 compared with the fresh ones, which showed great promise for upgrading the quality
32 of liquid oil.

41 Introduction
42 Bamboo, as a typical kind of plant in Poaceae grass group, which is a vital cash
43 crop in mountainous areas of China. As the biggest bamboo products supplier, the
44 annual output value of bamboo industry is $14.5 billion based on the statistical data
45 derived from the last 10 years, and China Bamboo Industry Development Plan has
46 announced that the overall value of output will increase to $48 billion by 2020 [1].
47 However, the dramatic development of bamboo industry leads to a sustained growth
48 of bamboo residual (BR). Therefore, from the perspective of waste-to-energy (WTE),
49 some efforts should be urgently made to converting BR into liquid oil or value-added
50 chemicals [2-5].
51 Note that there are various BR management techniques including combustion,
52 WTE, and carbonization. However, excessive quantities of gaseous products like CO2
53 or CH4 will inevitably be produced via combustion and carbonization, which
54 contribute to serious environmental risks. Conversely, WTE via catalytic fast
55 pyrolysis (CFP) could be used as a preferable way in terms of energy conversion and
56 waste management [6-9]. During a typical CFP process, quality of the obtained liquid
57 products can be upgraded by the presence of moderate heterogeneous catalysts, which
58 shows great promise to the improved compatibility with crude oil as refinery
59 feedstocks, thus further procedures for upgrading may be minimized or avoided [2,
60 10-13].
61 Among the catalysts applied in the CFP of biomass, HZSM-5 has been recognized
62 to be one of the most efficient catalysts [14]. However, HZSM-5 was beneficial for
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
63 the rearrangements of small pyrolytic molecules, but was prominently constrained for
64 the bulky ones as a function of diffusional limitations [15]. In this sense, the
65 diffusional constrains could be improved by the formation of an intracrystalline
66 micro-mesopore system. Various routes, including templating methods and
67 modifications like zeolitization of mesoporous materials and synthesis of nanosized
68 zeolite crystals, were conducted and studied [15]. Among them, desilication by NaOH
69 leaching has been illustrated as one of the most effective methods [16]. While alkali
70 treatment shows less selectivity towards the removal of acid sites [17-19]. Therefore,
71 in order to regulate acid sites and enhance hydrothermal stability, hydro-thermal
72 treatment (dealumination) at moderate temperature has been used as a common
73 procedure [20]. Therefore, modifying HZSM-5 successively by NaOH leaching and
74 hydrothermal treatment may obtain more significant effects on catalytic performance.
75 On the other hand, it has been reported that CaO can be utilized as a prominent
76 candidate for tar cracking in gasification of biomass [21]. Simultaneously, due to its
77 excellent deoxygenation, the use of CaO in catalytic upgrading of pyrolytic liquid oil
78 to achieve high contents of desirables has been investigated [22-25]. Wang et al. [25]
79 conducted Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (TGA–FTIR) to investigate the
80 effects of CaO on the formation characteristics and composition of pyrolytic organic
81 vapors of corncob, and it was found that CaO dominated a high selectivity towards
82 deacidification and formation of hydrocarbons. Sun et al. [24] analyzed the effects of
83 Fe contents on fast pyrolysis of biomass with Fe/CaO catalysts by Py-GC/MS
84 experiments, and it was concluded that carbon yields of light phenols and aromatics
85 were increased while the yields of acids, aldehydes and ketones were significantly
86 decreased. Therefore, in this regard, a dual catalytic stage system, which is formed by
87 two catalytic beds (i.e., HZSM-5 and CaO), might be used as a substitute to further
88 facilitate the catalytic upgrading of liquid oil.
89 Despite the catalysts are of crucial importance in the process of CFP, the
90 hydrogen-deficiency essence of biomass also largely limits an upgraded liquid oil
91 production [11, 26, 27]. A parameter named H/C molar ratio was used to evaluate the
92 hydrogen-containing degree, which was defined as follows:
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
H - 2O 3N - 2S
/=
C
93 H C - (1)
94 Where C, H, O, N and S are the mole percentages of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen,
95 nitrogen and sulfur in samples, respectively. Note that the very low H/C ratio of
96 biomass (0~0.3) is responsible for the restriction of converting biomass into high
97 quality liquid products. Therefore, one distinct approach to solve the
98 hydrogen-deficiency disadvantage is to catalytic fast co-pyrolysis (co-CFP) of
99 biomass with other hydrogen-rich materials like waste plastics (WPs) or waste
100 cooking oil (WCO) [26, 28, 29]. However, at the best of our knowledge, co-CFP of
101 bamboo residual (BR) and waste tire (WT) over a dual catalytic stage system
102 (co-DCFP) of CaO and zeolites (fresh and co-modified HZSM-5) has not been
103 reported yet.
104 In this contribution, in order to further upgrade the quality of liquid products and
105 enhance the catalytic performance of HZSM-5, experiments for co-DCFP of BR and
106 WT were conducted by an analytical Py-GC/MS. Simultaneously, the effects of BR to
107 WT mass ratio (i.e, H/C ratio) and CaO to HZSM-5 mass ratio on pyrolytic products
108 distribution, were studied in depth. In addition, successive desilication (NaOH
109 leaching) and dealumination (hydrothermal treatment) was applied to modify the
110 HZSM-5 zeolites, and the influence of co-modification on the yields of aromatics and
111 olefins was discussed in detail.
112 2. Materials and Methods
113 2.1 Feedstocks preparation
114 BR was collected from Huzhou, Zhejiang province, China. Prior to the experiment,
115 BR was grinded into powder with a size smaller than 100 mesh, and then was dried at
116 108 oC for 12h. Simultaneously, WT was obtained from Nanjing, Jiangsu province,
117 China. Similar pretreatments were conducted and the ultimate analysis of WT and BR
118 was carried out by Vario EL II elemental analyzer (Germany), and the results were
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
119 presented in Tab.1. Note that the H/C ratios for WT and BR were 0.79 and 0.18,
120 respectively. Furthermore, CaO was purchased from Nanjing Chemical Reagent Co.
121 Ltd., and HZSM-5 zeolites were provided by the Catalyst Plant of Nankai University,
122 Tianjin, China.
123 2.2 Co-modification treatment
124 The co-modification treatment with NaOH leaching and hydrothermal process of
125 HZSM-5 zeolites could be summarized as follows: (I) 10g HZSM-5 zeolites were put
126 into the 200 mL NaOH solution with a concentration of 0.2 M, and then the mixed
127 liquid was stirred with magnetic stirring apparatus at 323 K for 4h; (II) Quickly
128 cooled down the slurry, then filtered and washed thoroughly until a neutral solution
129 could be reached, then dried at 375 K for 12h in a drying oven. (III) NH4NO3 solution
130 with a concentration of 1 M was used to carry out the ammonia exchanges, and after
131 that, a muffle furnace was utilized to calcine the samples at 823 K for 4h. (IV) The
132 NaOH leaching modified HZSM-5 zeolites were applied to conduct the hydro-thermal
133 treatment at 773 K for 4h, and then the integrated modified HZSM-5 zeolites could be
134 obtained. Note that the specific hydro-thermal treatment process could be found
135 elsewhere in our previous work [20]. Hereafter, the parent unmodified HZSM-5
136 zeolites and the co-modified ones were labeled as HZ-5 and 4MHZ-5, respectively.
137 2.3 Characterizations
138 The pore characteristics and surface features of the HZSM-5 samples were carried
139 out by a Belsorp-Max adsorption instrument with N2 at 77K. BET and Langmuir
140 methods were utilized to calculate the specific surface area, and t-plot method was
141 used to determine the microporous volumes and specific surface area. XRD patterns
142 were conducted by Bruker D8 Focus using CuKα radiation with a step of 0.02 at a
143 current of 40mA and a voltage of 40 kV. The scanning range of 2θ was from 5o to 50o
144 with a 10 min-1 scanning rate. NH3-TPD was conducted by FineSorb 3010 automatic
145 temperature programmed chemical adsorption equipment to analyze the acidity
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
146 performances of various samples. For a typical run, 100 mg specimens were
147 introduced in a U-shaped quartz cell and the temperature was fixed at 873 K with a
148 He steam for 1h, and then cooled down to 423 K. Finally, the samples were saturated
149 by some NH3 gas, then the NH3-TPD was conducted with a fixed heating rate of 15
150 oC/min from 150 to 650 oC.
151 2.4 Experimental methods
152 Note that a CDS Pyroprobe 5200 pyrolyzer was used to carry out the CFP
153 experiments (Fig. S1). The probe was heated by platinum resistance, and an
154 open-ended quartz tube was applied to place the feedstocks. Specifically, taking the
155 co-DCFP for instance, the specimens were placed in the order shown as follows:
156 quartz wool, HZSM-5 (1mg), quartz wool, CaO (1mg), quartz wool, mixture of BR
157 and WT (1 mg), quartz wool, CaO (1mg), quartz wool, HZSM-5 (1mg), quartz wool,
158 which could be seen in Fig. 1. Moreover, for each experiment, the pyrolyzer was
159 initially kept at 80 oC, and then was heated at 2000 oC/s to a final temperature of 600
160 oC based on our previous work (Fig. S2). Helium with a purity of 99.999% and a
161 stable flow of 1.0 mL/min was chosen as carrier gas, which was obtained from
162 Nanjing Maikesi Nanfen Special Gas Co., Ltd.
163 A gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS, 7890A/5975C, Agilent) was
164 applied to identify the pyrolytic organic volatile matters, and the injector and interface
165 temperature was respectively fixed at 275 oC and 300 oC. Simultaneously, the GC
166 separation was conducted by a capillary column (HP-5MS, 0.25mm×0.25um×30m),
167 and the split ratio was kept at 1:80. Furthermore, the NIST MS library was used to
168 discriminate and analyze the chromatographic peaks. Despite the pyrolytic products
169 could not be gathered during each Py-GC/MS experiment, the total mass of feedstock
170 samples (i.e., BR and WT) and catalysts (i.e., HZ-5 and CaO) were accurately kept at
171 fixed values, thus a semi-quantitative method via analyzing the peak areas of
172 pyrolytic volatile matters was used [11]. Note that each experiment was conducted in
173 triplicate for reducing experimental errors, and the mean values were investigated and
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
174 discussed.
175 2.5 Evaluation method

181 3. Results and discussion
182 3.1 Effect of catalysts on fast pyrolysis of BR
183 In this section, experiments for single CFP of BR individually over CaO and HZ-5,
184 as well as over dual catalytic stage system were conducted, and the experimental
185 results were illustrated in Fig. 2. Furthermore, in order to evaluate the effect of
186 catalysts on products distribution, some non-catalytic fast pyrolysis (non-CFP)
187 experiments were carried out for comparison and the corresponding results were also
188 presented in Fig. 2. Note that the obtained pyrolytic volatile matters were classified
189 into four groups shown as followings: CO2, hydrocarbons (mainly aromatics and
190 olefins, HCs), value-added chemicals (phenols and furans, VACs), and undesired
191 products (acids and ketones, UPs). As could be observed from Fig. 2, the products
192 distribution of non-CFP were dominated by VACs and UPs, which was in good
193 agreement with previous works [1]. Simultaneously, there were no any aromatics
194 detected and only a small fraction of olefins with a relative content of 1.212% were
195 achieved in the non-catalytic run. Therefore, some efforts should be urgently made to
196 promote the production of HCs as to produce gasoline like components.
197 For the single CFP of BR over CaO, as shown in Fig. 2, an additive of CaO
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
198 facilitated the yields of CO2, VACs and HCs, and suppressed the formation of UPs.
199 For instance, compared with the non-CFP, the relative contents of HCs and VACs
200 attained an increment of 2.734% and 4.471%, respectively. This was as a function of
201 the excellent deacidification of CaO during the thermal cracking process of bioenergy
202 through three reaction pathways: catalytic cracking, neutralization, and thermal
203 cracking [25]. More specifically, acids could be converted into H2O and calcium
204 carboxylate through neutralization as shown in reaction (I), and the calcium
205 carboxylate would further be decomposed to CaCO3 and ketones under the
206 temperature of 400~500 oC. Simultaneously, it was reported that thermal cracking
207 reaction, i.e., reaction (III), would boost the conversion of acids catalyzed by CaO to
208 CO2 and hydrocarbons, which could be clearly reflected in Fig. 2 as the yields of CO2
209 and HCs increased by the presence of CaO. Furthermore, CO2 derived from reaction
210 (III) could react with CaO, which contributed the chemical equilibrium to the
211 direction of deacidification and hydrocarbons formation, as could be seen in reaction
212 (IV).

217 With respect to the single HZ-5 catalytic run, it could be found that the relative
218 content of HCs exhibited a dramatic increase (16.721%) by comparison with the
219 single CaO catalytic run, while the VACs yield was 19.153% lower than that of CFP
220 over CaO. Therefore, HZ-5 zeolites with the MFI structure could be recognized as a
221 promising candicate for the upgrading of liquid oil. During the thermal catalytic
222 cracking process of BR, HCs, especially the aromatics, could be formed by multiple
223 chemical reactions, such as cracking, dehydration, decarboxylation and aromatization
224 [30]. However, coke will inevitably occur during the catalytic process and thus lead to
225 deactivation due to pore blockage, and this has been the dominating restriction for
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
226 thermal conversion of bioenergy with zeolites. Therefore, in this regard, we
227 performed CFP of BR over dual catalytic stage of CaO and HZ-5 (DCFP) to upgrade
228 the liquid fuel and improve the catalytic ability of HZ-5, and the results were also
229 exhibited in Fig. 2.
230 As could be indicated in Fig. 2, the relative contents of CO2 and HCs obtained from
231 DCFP over CaO and HZ-5 (mass ratio: 1:1) reached the maximum values compared
232 with those of single CFP, while the relative content of UPs tended to markedly
233 decrease, which reflected that dual catalytic stage dominated the superiority for
234 promoting the target products and effectively suppressing the formation of
235 undesirables like acids. This might be attributed to the distinct deoxygenation and
236 aromatization as aforementioned. Furthermore, it was of interest to find that the
237 relative content of VACs for various catalysts was in the order of CaO > HZ-5+CaO >
238 HZ-5, which proved that dual catalytic stage not only accelerated the productivity of
239 HCs, but also possessed a moderate selectivity towards VACs, thus it might be used as
240 a potential development trend in the field of liquid oil upgrading.
241 3.2 Effect of BR to WT mass ratio on products distribution
242 As has been noted, the hydrogen-deficient essence of BR with a low H/C of 0.18
243 largely inhibited the quality of liquid oil. In this sense, experiments for catalytic fast
244 co-pyrolysis of BR and WT over dual catalytic stage (co-DCFP) of CaO and HZ-5
245 were carried out, and the results were performed in Fig. 3. As illustrated, compared
246 with DCFP of BR alone, the relative content of HCs was 22.772% but increased to
247 52.441% and 67.454% as the BR/WT mass ratio was kept at 3:2 and 1:1, respectively.
248 Similar experimental results have been reported by other literatures [31, 32]. Uçar et
249 al. [32] carried out co-pyrolysis of pine nut shells (PNS) and scrap tires (ST), and it
250 was observed that the highest yield of light and heavy naphtha were obtained at
251 PNS/ST mass ratio of 1:1. This was attributed to the relatively high H/C ratio in WT,
252 which facilitated the hydrocarbon pool for the production of aromatics and olefins.
253 Zhang et al. concluded that H/C ratio played a vital role in the HCS yield during the
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
254 CFP process, and the deactivation rate of HZSM-5 would be suppressed with H/C
255 ratio increasing [33]. Fig. 4 exhibits the proposed reaction mechanism of co-DCFP of
256 BR and WT via hydrocarbon pool. As shown in Fig. 4, WT acts as hydrogen donor to
257 the hydrocarbon pool, which favors co-DCFP reaction towards the formation of
258 aromatics and olefins. In addition, oxygenates obtained from BR pyrolysis with high
259 activation also accelerate the chain scission of pyrolytic organic vapors in the thermal
260 conversion of WT [26]. Therefore, compared with DCFP of BR alone, a significant
261 increased HCs could be obtained by co-DCFP of BR and WT.
262 On the other hand, the relative content of VACs decreased at first and then
263 increased within the studied BR to WT mass ratio region, and the minimum yield of
264 17.023% could be obtained at 1:1, which was in consistent with other works [32, 34].
265 Martinez et al. conducted the co-pyrolysis of pine wood chips with scrap tires, and it
266 was observed that an addition of waste tires to the biomass decreased the amount of
267 aldehydes, ketones and phenolic compounds [34]. For instance, furans were
268 consumed via Diels–Alder cycloaddition reaction during the co-DCFP process. Chen
269 and Huber reported that co-feeding furans with olefins significantly promoted the
270 selectivity of aromatics, and the maximum selectivity of xylene could be reached
271 when propylene was utilized [35]. During the co-DCFP of BR and WT, olefins were
272 produced by WT pyrolysis, which facilitated the Diels-Alder reaction towards the
273 formation of aromatics. Similarly, the relative content of UPs performed the same
274 tendency with the minimum yield of 5.931% occurring at 1:1. Bertero et al. conducted
275 the thermal and catalytic conversion of ketones over equilibrium FCC catalyst, and
276 experimental results revealed that aromatics with a selectivity of 70% were the main
277 hydrocarbon products [36]. Therefore, ketones might be employed for the formation
278 of aromatics during the co-DCFP as the decreased yield was associated with an
279 increase in aromatics. Moreover, it was of interest to find that the relative content of
280 alcohols presented a remarkable variation, thus it could be concluded that co-DCFP of
281 BR and WT attributed to this phenomenon.

282 3.3 Effect of HZ-5 to CaO mass ratio on products distribution
283 Fig. 5 exhibits the products distribution obtained from co-DCFP with various HZ-5
284 to CaO mass ratios. Herein, non-catalytic fast co-pyrolysis (co-NCFP) of BR and WT
285 was also carried out in order to make a comparison, and the experimental results were
286 shown in Fig. 5. It could be observed that HCs, especially the olefins, played a pivotal
287 role in pyrolytic organic products distribution. Simultaneously, compared with single
288 co-CFP of BR and WT over CaO or HZ-5, co-DCFP integrated with CaO and HZ-5
289 gave a positive contribution to promoting the production of olefins and aromatics, as
290 well as inhibiting the yield of UPs. Furthermore, as indicated in Fig. 5, a HZ-5/CaO
291 mass ratio of 4:1 contributed to the productivity of aromatics as the maximum relative
292 content could be reached, and compared with the co-NCFP, the relative content
293 obtained a dramatic increment of 19.561%. Simultaneously, the yield of olefins
294 presented deviation when the HZ-5/CaO mass ratio exceeded certain limitation.
295 Specifically, at the mass ratio of 1:4, the relative content of olefins was 45.523% but
296 increased to 54.274% as the mass ratio was raised to 2:3. However, further enhanced
297 it to 3:2 and 4:1 decreased the relative content to 49.708% and 44.193%, respectively.
298 Therefore, a mass ratio of 2:3 formed the optimum reaction condition for olefins.
299 However, when taken the relative content of HCs (i.e., aromatics + olefins) into
300 consideration, the maximum value of 73.583% could be obtained at mass ratio of 3:2.
301 In terms of VACs, as illustrated in Fig. 5, the relative content of VACs tended to
302 decrease at first and then increase as the HZ-5/CaO mass ratios varied from 1:4 to 4:1,
303 and the minimum value of 12.083% could be gained at 3:2. Simultaneously, compared
304 with the co-NCFP, the formation of UPs was sharply suppressed, and similarly, the
305 minimum relative content of UPs with a value 2.163% could also be reached at 3:2.
306 Furthermore, the relative content of alcohols fluctuated widely, and the maximum
307 value of 9.518% could also be attained under the mass ratio of 3:2.
308 It should be noted that the aromatics derived from co-DCFP of BR and WT mainly
309 were BTXEN, i.e., benzene, toluene, p-xylene, ethylbenzene, naphthalene and its
310 derivatives. While the dominated components of olefins were D-limonene,
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
311 1,3-pentadiene, and 2-butene, respectively. Fig. 6 presents the selectivities of
312 aromatics and olefins. As indicated in Fig. 6a, it was apparently to find that toluene
313 and p-xylene dominated the products distribution, and followed by naphthalene and
314 its derivatives. Similar results were also found by Song et al. [37]. In addition, the
315 selectivity of toluene decreased at first and then increased with a minimum value
316 occurring at 2:3. Conversely, the selectivity of naphthalene and its derivatives was
317 inclined to present an opposite trend with a maximum value of 17.803% under the
318 same condition. Simultaneously, the selectivity of p-xylene decreased gradually as the
319 HZ-5/CaO mass ratio increased, and a similar tendency could be observed with
320 respect to ethylbenzene. However, the selectivity of benzene fluctuated slightly as the
321 maximum value of 10.308% achieved at 4:1.
322 With regard to the selectivities of olefins, it could be concluded from Fig. 6b that
323 the selectivity of D-limonene was the most prominent among the three main
324 constitutes, and the selectivity increased at first and then decreased with HZ-5/CaO
325 mass ratio increasing. Similarly, previous studies with respect to the pyrolysis of WT
326 illustrated that the high yield of D-limonene was attributed to the thermal conversion
327 of natural rubber (NR) [37, 38]. It was worth noting that D-limonene was also largely
328 used in the field of food industry due to its antimicrobial activity [39, 40]. Zahi et al.
329 [41] developed a novel antimicrobial delivery system via encapsulating D-limonene
330 into an organogel-based nanoemulsion, and it was found that the encapsulation of
331 D-limonene made a significant contribution to the increment of antimicrobial activity.
332 Moreover, a similar trend for the selectivity of 1,3-pentadiene could be observed, and
333 the maximum value of 29.913% occurred at 3:2. However, the selectivity of 2-butene
334 varied inversely with a minimum value of 10.243% attaining at 2:3.
335 3.4 Effect of co-modified HZ-5 on products distribution
336 As aforementioned, the microporous essence (i.e., porous properties) and acidic
337 properties of HZ-5 catalysts inhibited the mass transfer and diffusion, which resulted
338 in the constraints of catalytic performance, and thus it seemed that some efforts
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
339 should be urgently made to improve the catalytic properties by moderate modification
340 methods. Note that in our previous work, a series of modified treatments for HZ-5
341 zeolites, such as EDTA dealumination, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and
342 hydrothermal process had already been done and noteworthy achievements were
343 obtained [10, 20, 42, 43]. Nevertheless, given that the modification process for
344 integrating the porous properties and acidic properties of HZ-5 has not been
345 conducted, and at the best of our knowledge, there are rare reports related to this
346 creative modification method. In this section, an innovative modification combined
347 successive desilication and dealumination to form a micro-mesopore hierarchical
348 system, was carried out by sodium hydroxide leaching and subsequent hydrothermal
349 process, and the specific treatment process could be seen at section 2.2.
350 The pore volume features and surface area were carried out by N2
351 adsorption-desorption isotherms, and the calculated results were shown in Tab. 2. As
352 indicated, both the external surface areas and mesopore volumes of co-modified
353 zeolites (labelled as 4MHZ-5) increased significantly compared with the fresh ones,
354 while the micropore volume decreased due to the conversion of micropores to
355 mesopores. Thus a micro-mesopore hierarchical system could be obtained, which
356 might show great promise for decreasing the diffusional constrains and advancing the
357 catalytic properties.
358 Fig. 7 shows the XRD patterns and NH3-TPD results of fresh and co-modified
359 HZ-5 zeolites. As described in Fig. 7a, compared with fresh zeolites, the crystal
360 structure of 4MHZ-5 zeolite was not damaged as a consequence of the characteristic
361 diffraction peaks were still kept, and the results were in consistency with other works
362 [44, 45]. Simultaneously, as could be observed in Fig. 7b, the strong acid sites of
363 4MHZ-5 zeolites decreased in comparison with the parent ones, while the weak acid
364 sites were inclined to increase. The underlying reason for this phenomenon was that
365 not only the NaOH treatment led to the removal of Si-OH bonds inside the zeolites,
366 but also the hydrothermal process resulted in the dealumination [20, 46].
367 In order to investigate whether an enhanced catalytic performance of co-modified
368 HZ-5 zeolites could be reached, some experiments for co-DCFP of BR and WT over
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
369 4MHZ-5 zeolites and CaO (mass ratio was 1:1) were conducted, and the specific
370 pyrolytic products were performed in Tab. 3. As exhibited in Tab. 3, it was of crucial
371 importance to find that the relative content of aromatics increased dramatically from
372 21.418% to 33.324% by comparison with the fresh HZ-5 co-DCFP run, and toluene
373 and p-xylene were still the main focus of aromatics production. Namchot et al. carried
374 out the catalytic pyrolysis of waste tire over HY/MCM-41 core-shell composite, and it
375 was reported that the synthesized micro-and mesoporous core-shell structure
376 facilitated the transformation of the bulky aromatics to valuable aromatics [47].
377 Simultaneously, the relative content of olefins achieved from co-DCFP over 4MHZ-5
378 increased by 2.561% compared with that of parent HZ-5. Conversely, the
379 productivities of VACs and UPs drastically declined when 4MHZ-5 was utilized, and
380 light phenols, such as phenol and 3-methyl-phenol, were the main components, which
381 reflected that an integrated modification of HZ-5 showed prominent promise for
382 further facilitating the shape selectivity of aromatics and olefins, as well as boosting
383 the ability of deoxygenation, and thus an improved catalytic performance could be
384 achieved. Therefore, co-modification of HZ-5 by NaOH leaching and hydrothermal
385 treatment might be used as a prevalent method for upgrading the liquid oil quality.
386 3.5 Future perspective
387 In summary, co-DCFP of BR and WT over CaO and 4MHZ-5 significantly spurred
388 the production of aromatics, especially the BTX. Generally, benzene can be alkylated
389 with olefins to produce alkylbenzenes for the formation of polystyrenes, and it also
390 can be utilized as feedstocks to synthesize polyurethanes and polycarbonates.
391 Simultaneously, toluene with a relative high octane number, which can be blended
392 into gasoline fuels, or applied to make toluene diisocyanate for the formation of
393 polyurethanes. With respect to p-xylene, similar to toluene, it can be used to enhance
394 the octane number of gasoline fuels. In addition, p-xylene also is a precursor to
395 produce terephthalic acid, which is then utilized to make polyethylene terephthalate
396 (PET). Due to the diversity of BTX aromatics, their market demands are expected to
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
397 keep increasing, especially in p-xylene. On the other hand, limonene, as the typical
398 pyrolytic compound derived from pyrolysis of NR, which is a vital starting feedstock
399 in several industrial formulations including solvents, resins, or adhesives [38].
400 Additionally, D-limonene can also be used for fragrances and flavorants as a function
401 of the oranges smell. Therefore, co-DCFP of BR and WT could be used as a
402 promising way for enhancing the production of BTX aromatics and olefins.
403 4. Conclusions
404 In this paper, experiments for co-DCFP of BR and WT over CaO and HZ-5 were
405 carried out by Py-GC/MS, and the HZ-5 zeolites modified by an integrated NaOH
406 leaching and hydrothermal treatment process were used to further upgrade the quality
407 of liquid oil. DCFP of BR indicated that the dual catalytic stage of CaO and HZ-5
408 boosted the production of aromatics and olefins. Moreover, compared with DCFP of
409 BR alone, co-DCFP of BR and WT significantly increased the relative contents of
410 aromatics and olefins, and a maximum relative content of HCs (67.454%), as well as
411 the minimum relative content of UPs (5.931%), could be obtained when BR to WT
412 mass ratio was fixed at 1:1. Furthermore, the mass ratio of HZ-5 to CaO observably
413 affected the products distribution of co-DCFP, and a mass ratio of 4:1 contributed to
414 the productivity of aromatics as the maximum yield could be reached. However, when
415 taken the yield of HCs into consideration, the maximum value of 73.583% could be
416 achieved at mass ratio of 3:2. Finally, the 4MHZ-5 zeolites were used to conduct the
417 co-DCFP experiments, and the relative content of aromatics increased dramatically
418 from 21.418% to 33.324% by comparison with co-DCFP over fresh HZ-5 and CaO
419 (mass ratio: 1:1).

Highlights
Co-pyrolysis of bamboo residual and waste tire over CaO and HZSM-5 was
conducted.
Co-modification of HZSM-5 by NaOH leaching and hydrothermal process was
proposed.
A dual catalytic stage bed of CaO and HZSM-5 facilitated the yield of aromatics.
Co-modified HZSM-5 zeolites showed significant selectivity towards aromatics.
